    I love the idea of 3-d printed footwear. Both videos I've seen on youtube went through a single prototype and had mixed results as you'd expect. The design definitely seems to be the hard part. You'll probably want to plan on multiple prints and budget enough printer time so that you're not in a rush to attend a conference/go on vacation/get a video out the door.

      I used White (titanium oxide powder) PC for the parts cooler and BL touch probe mount/protector. Printed at 6mm³/s, it's strong enough to smash into parts and stopping the stepper motors on failed prints and forgetting about a print sitting on the print bed when homing 😅 enclosed @60C for about 2 years with no signs of warping. Although I'm certain if I remove it and check there will be some warping, possibly caused by annealing.
      I use PC Glass Fiber for other projects which makes it surprisingly impact resistant while stiffening it up. Not as much as Carbon Fiber, but halfway there

    I bought a roll of Prusament PCCF. Had it over a year before I found anything worthwhile using it for. Made a splash guard for my buddy's electric bike. Probably could've used ASA or even CF PLA but he was paying for it and it will be taking impacts from rocks etc when off roading. I figured I should test out and see if my Bambu P1S could handle it *easily* after changing to hardened parts. To my surprise, I tweaked a couple PC settings on the generic PC profile and it printed like a DREAM.

  • @FuchsDanin
    @FuchsDanin 9 месяцев назад +2

    Not sure if you've covered this or not -- in your video, you recommend hardened steel nozzles several times. Printing with CF-PLA, I could detect signs of nozzle wear (bottom surface flattening, bore widening) in under one 1kg spool of filament. The first mm of wear happened FAST (thinnest part of the material) and then it was slow, steady wear -- I could track it in my stadily drifting Z offset. I switched to a cheap Ruby nozzle on Amazon from MOD3DP as a test (not sponsored) and it legit has not lost 0.1mm of its tip. Pros, lasts longer than a hardened steel nozzle. Cons, slightly worse stringing. I'd be curious to hear your experience.

  • @zviratko
    @zviratko 11 месяцев назад +4

    @thenextlayer please try not to fall for manufacturer's marketing BS.
    1) CPE is the same non-term as "PLA+". It means nothing. At most it just means "blend". Commonly CPE is PETG+something, but like with PLA+, it could be simply as good (or bad) as any other ordinary PETG, but calling it "CPE" gives it more credibility. What matters is the datasheet (assuming it doesn't lie).
    2) NonOilen is PHB (=PHA?), so nothing special. For example Colorfabb PLA-HP is the same thing. But I get it, calling it NonOilen sounds cool and I keep it in stock for various prints because that marketing made me buy it over other PHA/PHB filaments in the past. Also I wonder why it didn't stick to the bed for you, I have trouble getting it of and need to use glue stick as a separation layer. It ruined part of my black Textured PEI sheet from Bambu as I had to literally scrape it off...
    3) Food safe filaments are plentiful. Again - making it sound important is mostly marketing BS. If you really care about food safety then you need to make the "product" food safe, and that's not (just) about using food safe materials. I would guess that most filaments out there coming from better manufacturers are food safe, but it really means very little. Btw PP shoud be more food safe in practice as it should be less porous and more likely to produce watertight parts etc.
    4) Polypropylene is actually not that bad when it comes to printing. It doesn't warp, so as long as the first layer sticks and isn't too narrow then you are fine. Magigoo PP works great of course. If you want a challenging filament, try Fillamentum Flexfill TPE 90A (Sky Blue is what I have). It sticks to nothing and warps like crazy.
    Full disclosure - I actually like Fillamentum CPE HG100 a lot , but please don't talk about CPE in general as if it meant something. And I also like NonOilen, though it's just too expensive, probably because of marketing costs :P I also have my doubts about biodegradability... If manufacturers truly cared about the environment they would buy (or at least take) back filament and failed prints from public to recycle.

    I have printed with Prusament PVB and it prints great with no discernible smell. I also have a Polysher for smoothing it with IPA vapor. The Polysher works pretty well but has issues getting to all the surfaces leaving some areas with layer lines. I also found the vase mode PVB prints take almost a week to dry out and become as firm as they were after printing.

    I print with PP on a fairly regular basis. The lab I work for often prints prototypes for the local hospital and PP is a go to for us because of everything you mentioned. I find it is easier to print with than TPU as long as you can solve the bed adhesion issue. We simply wrapped a glass bed with packing tape as PP will easily stick to itself. My favorite filament we have produced at my lab, though, is a LDPE composite with a density of 0.64 g/cm3. Crazy light weight with amazing impact resistance.

  • @kmartyCZ
    @kmartyCZ 11 месяцев назад +3

    I've had several printer/toolhead parts from PA-CF and had to reprint them using PC-CF because PA-CF parts becomes by time (about a year) too flexible (almost like a rubber). Although all the parts could be printed from ABS/ASA, the PC-CF remains to me as the only high temperature resistant material which can be easily printed on open printer (basically no warping and still good layer adhesion, at least the Prusa flavour of PC-CF).
    PC-CF (still talking about Prusa flavour, I've never tried any other PC-CF vendor) is hydroscopic, yet printing from filament dryer is not mandatory (it is slightly higher hydroscopic than e.g. PETG, so no torture like Nylon or so).
    BTW. Most of the PC-CF (about three spools or so) were printed using nickel plated copper nozzle :-). The nozzle is still fine. But on my second printer, with Revo hotend, I even didn't tried to print it with brass nozzle (I immediately ordered obxidian nozzle) since brass is really soft in compare with nickel plating.

      @leonjiang2882 11 месяцев назад +1

      Prusa PCCF sounds really nice! I've heard that 3DXTech PCCF is really hard to print and requires a heated chamber, which makes it impossible for open frame printers.
      How was your experience with nickel plated nozzles? I never tried them for abrasive filaments. Three spools of CF filament is pretty insane. What brand do you use?

    PEBA is indeed a top tier material for elite running shoes due to its compliance and resilience, usually combined with a carbon plate to stabilise. However in running shoes it is used in a foamed version, I don't think it could be printed with the same properties, and even in the foam form there are huge differences between different versions.

    • @atwa5001
      @atwa5001 11 месяцев назад +2

      When it comes to the processability of PEBA filament in FDM printing, especially for midsoles of shoes, we have verified it not only experimentally but also in custom shoe production. The verification was conducted in collaboration with the Footwear Design Studios of the University T.Bati, utilizing hollow structures to achieve comparable or better properties than in mass shoe production. While the efficiency for mass production with FDM is limited, it serves its purpose for verification or custom manufacturing.
      PEBA filament is not exclusively intended for footwear; it makes sense primarily in the technical engineering field. Thanks to its high abrasion resistance, temperature range, and chemical resistance, combined with its elastic behavior, it is truly an exceptional material, and I'm pleased that this excellent video has introduced it to users.

    I use PVB specifically for it's low residue after ignition. This means that I don't use PVB filaments with colorants, as those increase residue. The fact that it can be vapor smoothed with not only isopropyl alcohol, but also ethyl alcohol, it can be smoothed much more safely and this lends to fewer layer lines in final parts which is necessary for my uses.

PEKK lacks some of the properties of PEEK but is significant easier to print being around as difficult as PETG, it is at the higher end of the price range before at around $700 USD a Kg.

    I used to work in the Injection molding industry, and we used some CC. It was PBC, For dental parts. AND IT SUCKED. Every new batch we got in was a different blend, So we had to redo the process every time. Sometimes it would very in a batch. Even the color wasn't consistent.

    in general PP has an inherent fatigue resistance. PP can take a repeated, vigorous beating, it lasts longer with proper lubrication. PP doesn’t do well with abrasion without lubrication and can sustain damage. make sure that whatever you’re making with PP is sized properly for application.

    I've used PVB by way of PolySmooth and their Polysher (a box that generates IPA fog rather than trying to mist it by hand). It does what it's supposed to, but always felt like it was better off with some initial processing first to reduce the time it needed to be exposed to the solvent. If I ran it for too long the plastic seemed to become permanently softer, though sometimes over weeks it would regain the initial hardness. It is a nice effect when it works, without having to paint and sand and paint and topcoat... You'll lose hard edges and fine details the more you smooth it, of course.
    Also used a fair bit of PC-CF, in all three of my printers (Mk4, VCore3, X1C). It's good for "I don't want to care about it getting left out in the sun and deforming or breaking". No idea if I've needed it half the times I've used it, but it's worked every time from parts on the outsides of trucks and RVs to printer toolheads (I've made a few EVA3s out of it). The CF seems to have helped a lot with ameliorating PCs desire to warp in less well heated enclosures.
    Looking at playing with a new thing called PETG Polyhex from IC3D. They are claiming it has PC-like performance and chemical resistance without the warping and other eccentricities. Supposedly designed with the Army for easy printing and durability in the field.

    Speaking about rare filaments, whatever happened to FilamentOne???? They were my go to for filament, I had the best results with their filaments. Thankfully, I bought like 6 or 8 of their "ultramarine blue" in PLA Pro, and one roll of ASA, I love that color!!!!. I also bought a few other colors of their PLA Pro, but that was just 1 or 2 rolls. If anyone knows who carries a color close to that ultramarine blue, I would love to hear about it.

    I appreciate the work you put into these videos, but I offer some constructive criticism to make them more interesting for me to watch (i.e., these are just my opinions).
    1. Your title is deceptive as you did not print all of these filaments. (Okay, you fixed this one already.)
    2. Good videos are more “show” than “tell.” You use a too-high percentage of irrelevant and borderline deceptive stock footage. You also play the same b-roll clips over and over; I would rather watch a talking head than b-roll of you spraying alcohol on a PVB vase a half dozen times. Thank you for the kittens, though. I want to see more things that you print, not a half-finished 3DBenchy, and it is not at all clear if the watch strap you showed was yours or stock footage. Please show footage of 3D printed items rather than injection molded mass-produced parts. Yes, filament is expensive, but many manufacturers offer free or inexpensive samples, especially to RUclipsrs.
    3. As you are largely talking about products you have zero or little practical experience with, do more research. Bad information is worse than none. For example, you said that NonOilen was the only food safe filament (you did admit you found another), but you ignored colorFabb nGen, Tauman t-glase, Filament.ca TRUE Food Safe PLA and PETG, and quite a few others. Food safe filament is not uncommon. Another example is that polypropylene will not stick to blue tape as you showed, but common polypropylene packing tape works well.
    4.Reduce redundancy. You have a template for discussing filaments consistently, which is good, but you mention some things repeatedly without benefit. One example is when you mention moisture absorption for a filament multiple times. Once is plenty. And I could not count the number of times that you said that TPU is stretchy, same for TPE and PEBA.
    Overall, tightening up your script to about 15 minutes would make this video more watchable (and less work for you searching for stock footage).
    I hope you find this helpful, I want your channel to do well.

    I thikn it would have been worth mentioning that the adhesion problem with the otherwise excellent PP comes from the fact that it almost exclusively sticks to itself. That's why people typically use regular packaging tape that is often made from PP or buy specific build plates with a PP toping. Those tend to be quite expensive though.
    Otherwise thanks for another entertaining video!

      It would be great to see a video on entry level engineering materials (think of outdoor fixtures under constant load) and then rate them by how easy those materials are to print. Do a tier list. :-) For a material to qualify as "entry level engineering" we could say that they need to withstand a "constant exposure/abuse" of some sort, for ex: repeated bending, constant mechanical load, UV rays, heat, chemicals, a.s.o. As for how easy the material is to print, the categories could be: non/low hygroscopic (needs no drier), heated print bed, print bed adhesion, elevated nozzle temperature, hardened nozzle, low warping, needs enclosure. Needing an actively heated enclosure with over 50° C should rule out the material, making it "non entry level".

    My filament strategy is avoiding costs. So I store alays only 2 basic colord (black & white) and I use 95% PETG the rest being PLA (only because it is slighly cheaper).
    Initially I wanted to use translucent material for everything which is color in while printing with a marker on a holder, but I honestly didn´t feel like it and just stored 2 colors. I can color in the white with all sorts of paint if I want to, everything else is a waste of space and money.

    @alexcavalcanticosta1585 11 месяцев назад

    First of all, I'll let you know that it has nothing to do with the channel, it's just a rant about the world of 3D printing.
    Today, I bring a different perspective on 3D printers, based on the research I carried out.
    I came to a conclusion that I would like to share.
    I have a comment about the world of 3D printing, which, contrary to what some say about accessibility, is still a world for few. Despite the criticism I may receive for this, I believe that although printers have become more affordable, there is still a long way to go before they become an achievable dream for many people, including myself.
    It's not just the initial cost of the printer that must be considered. An often overlooked point is the ongoing cost of the filament. Just like in the early days of inkjet printers, where the price of ink was an obstacle, today we face similar challenges with filament. Even though printers have become a little cheaper, filament remains a considerable investment.
    It is notable that over the years we have not seen a significant reduction in filament prices. There appears to be a lack of real competition, resulting in companies setting prices almost like a monopoly. Filament quality is also a concern, with reports of poor quality not justifying the investment.
    Another aspect that is rarely addressed is the amount of material wasted due to unsuccessful prints, especially for beginners. Even though errors decrease over time, they do not disappear completely. This is a relevant point to consider, as it contributes to additional costs and not to mention environmental issues.
    That's why I say it and I repeat, cast the first stone if anyone who has never been through this, even with vast experience, still continues to print with errors and has to do it all over again, no matter the printer or your knowledge, there will be errors and as a result waste of material and input costs. what do we need and start thinking about this issue, well the filament should be cheaper, it would help the person who bought it and nature thanks you.
    antes de qualquer coisa ja aviso que não tem nada a ver com o canal é apenas um desabafo sobre o mudo das impressões 3d
    Hoje, trago uma perspectiva diferente sobre impressoras 3D, baseada nas pesquisas que realizei.
    Cheguei a uma conclusão que gostaria de compartilhar.
    Tenho um comentário sobre o universo da impressão 3D, que, ao contrário do que alguns afirmam sobre a acessibilidade, ainda é um mundo para poucos. Apesar das críticas que posso receber por isso, acredito que, embora as impressoras tenham se tornado mais acessíveis, ainda há um longo caminho para que se tornem um sonho alcançável para muitas pessoas, incluindo eu mesmo.
    Não é apenas o custo inicial da impressora que deve ser considerado. Um ponto muitas vezes negligenciado é o custo contínuo do filamento. Assim como no início das impressoras a jato de tinta, onde o preço da tinta era um obstáculo, hoje enfrentamos desafios semelhantes com o filamento. Mesmo que as impressoras tenham ficado um pouco mais baratas, o filamento continua sendo um investimento considerável.
    É notável que, ao longo dos anos, não tenhamos visto uma redução significativa nos preços do filamento. Parece haver uma falta de concorrência real, resultando em empresas que estabelecem preços quase como um monopólio. A qualidade do filamento também é uma preocupação, com relatos de baixa qualidade que não justificam o investimento.
    Outro aspecto pouco abordado é a quantidade de material desperdiçado devido a impressões mal sucedidas, especialmente para iniciantes. Mesmo que os erros diminuam com o tempo, não desaparecem completamente. Este é um ponto relevante a considerar, pois contribui para custos adicionais e sem falar das questões ambientais.
    por isso falo e repito , atire a primeira pedra quem nunca passou por isso ,mesmo com uma vasta experiência, ainda continua imprimindo com falhas e teve que fazer tudo de novo , não importa a impressora ou seu conhecimento , vai haver erros e como consequência desperdício de material e gastos com insumos. o que precisamos e começar a pensar sobre esta questão , poxa bem que o filamento deveria ser mais barato , ajudaria a pessoa que comprou e a natureza agradece.
